Follow-up to [1]; while most of our cloud servers are in Helsinki, the
latency from most of Europe is lower when accessing servers in Germany.

Pinging from multiple locations using ping.pe, the latency to Nuremberg
from most locations appears to be 10-20ms lower (compared to Helsinki).

loki: Simplify loki.yaml

See merge request !502

Loki v2.4.0 introduced a common config section[1][2] making the config
much smaller and better defaults.

So stripped loki.yaml down, removed options where the default is "good
enough" and tweaked retention settings per the upgrade notes[3].

So the config should basically be the example loki.yaml[4] + compactor,
retention enabled and a few tweaks (ex: compress chunks with zstd).

These are already known (so no need to hide them) and are fairly static
(so variables are more of a hindrance) so it's better to use the actual
usernames in the documentation. Also, simplify the first example given.

This reverts commit 5c4ff7af.

The account migration is done, so offsite backups can be re-enabled.

Complete rsync.net account migration

See merge request !501

New username; separate and longer account manager + storage passwords.

Also, have to use --remote-path=borg1 when interacting with rsync.net.

Create Hetzner cloud servers in Helsinki (Finland)

See merge request !500

Kristian Klausen authored 3 years ago and Jelle van der Waa committed 3 years ago

With Hetzner now having a datacenter in the US[1], we don't want to
accidentally create a server in the US, so let's always create them in
Helsinki where most of our cloud servers are.

prometheus-borg-textcollector is no longer started by timer, but instead
defines a WantedBy= relationship with the borg-backup{,-offsite} service.

Increase default time range from 90 days to 6 months.

rsync.net is about to migrate us to a new username/hostname pair.

Create a group for Wiki Maintainers in Keycloak

See merge request !496

This was a regression which has been fixed upstream.

This reverts commit 67e7677e.

We're no longer allowed to reserve formerly used namespaces.

Enable Unified Alerting and wire up with alertmanager

Grafana v8.2.0 added support for Prometheus's Alertmanager[1] which can
be used with the Unified Alerting added in v8.0.0[2].

archwiki: update to 1.36.2-1

See merge request !494

With Loki needing roughly 108GiB[1] and Prometheus at least[2]
116GiB[3], 200GiB sounds like a good starting point.
